Can we prove the universe is infinite?

The short answer is we don’t know. We know the observable universe — the part we can visibly see and measure — began around 13.8 billion years ago with the Big Bang. So we know the age of the universe is finite at least from the time of the Big Bang.

Is the universe an infinite loop?

An infinite loop: New research suggests the universe may be a closed sphere. Most people think of space as a flat sheet: You travel in one direction, and you end up far from your starting point. And a closed universe would be a sphere, with a beam of light eventually looping back around it to meet its origin.

What is infinite Universe?

To be clear, a truly infinite universe means that anything that is not impossible (no matter how obscure) will happen, must happen and must happen, weirdly, an infinite number of times.

Could there be an infinite number of universes?

And if there are an infinite number of universes, then that would mean that EVENTUALLY there would be another milky way galaxy, and everything that has happened here in ‘our’ galaxy, would happen the exact same in that galaxy. Also, there would be an infinite number of us, doing an infinite number of things.

Why is the universe spatially infinite?

In an inflationary Universe it turns out that once the inflation stops there is a most natural way of chopping it up; a way in which the Universe is close to homogeneous. And this gives a Universe that is spatially infinite.

Is there such a thing as an infinite size?

In a subject like cosmology, there are lots of infinities like that and most people are quite happy with them. For example, the Universe might have infinite size; it might have an infinite past age, it might be destined to have an infinite future age.

What is the meaning of the Infinity Gems?

Under unknown reasons, each individual gem became associated with a particular facet: power, space, time, mind, soul and reality. The Infinity Gems were kept by the In-Betweener and by members of the Elders of the Universe who, on the contrary, were not aware of the true essence of their Gems.
